All members have been apprehended and formally charged with 112 counts of burglary, theft, and fencing.<\/p>\n<p>The coordinated operation involved the Metropolitan Police, regional units in Gda\u0144sk, the Central Counter-Terrorist Police Unit (CPKP BOA), and the Nadbu\u017ca\u0144ski Border Guard. Executed under the direction of the Mazovian Department of the National Prosecutor&#8217;s Office, the raids took place across the capital, Lublin, and Pomeranian garrisons.<\/p>\n<h4>Scope of Criminal Activity<\/h4>\n<p>The investigation focused on individuals specializing in the theft of cars, the stripping of vehicle parts, and the systematic theft of car wheels across Poland and Germany. Authorities also targeted the fencing of stolen parts obtained through illegal dismantling.<\/p>\n<p>Police successfully detained 12 primary suspects during the operation. Following these arrests, investigators coordinated with penal institutions to bring in additional suspects already serving sentences for unrelated crimes, allowing for the filing of further charges related to the vehicle theft ring.<\/p>\n<h4>Assets Seized and Judicial Rulings<\/h4>\n<p>To secure potential future penalties, police confiscated a Toyota Corolla valued at 110,000 PLN, alongside 87,000 PLN, 6,000 EUR, and 6,000 GBP in cash. A luxury watch and various pieces of jewelry were also seized as evidence.<\/p>\n<p>The District Court for Warsaw approved the prosecution&#8217;s request for temporary detention, placing 13 suspects in three-month custody to prevent interference with the ongoing proceedings. Other individuals involved in the case have been placed under mandatory police supervision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Metropolitan Police\u2019s specialized \u201cOrze\u0142\u201d unit has dismantled a major criminal ring, resulting in 21 suspects facing 112 charges for vehicle theft, burglary, and receiving stolen goods across three Polish regions.
